# Instructions:
01 -
In a jar or container, combine 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1 scoop (approx. 30g) chocolate protein powder, 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/4 tsp instant espresso powder, and a pinch of sea salt. This forms the rich base for your High Protein Creamy Brownie Batter Overnight Oats.
02 -
Pour in 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until all dry ingredients are fully incorporated and there are no lumps. Ensure a smooth consistency for the batter.
03 -
Add 1/4 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt and 1 tbsp chia seeds to the mixture. Stir vigorously until everything is well combined and the batter starts to thicken slightly. This enhances the creamy texture of your High Protein Creamy Brownie Batter Overnight Oats.
04 -
Cover the container tightly and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid, creating the perfect brownie batter consistency for your breakfast.
05 -
The next morning, give your High Protein Creamy Brownie Batter Overnight Oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick for your liking, you can add a splash more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
06 -
Top your overnight oats with 1 tbsp almond butter, 1 tbsp mini chocolate chips, and a final pinch of flaky sea salt. These finishing touches add extra flavor and texture, completing your delicious breakfast.
# Notes:
01 -
For a vegan option, use plant-based protein powder and a dairy-free yogurt alternative. You can also swap maple syrup for agave nectar.
02 -
Overnight oats can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days, making them perfect for meal prep.
03 -
Feel free to customize your toppings! Berries, sliced banana, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of extra maple syrup would all be delicious additions.
04 -
Adjust the amount of instant espresso powder to your preference; it enhances the chocolate flavor without making it taste like coffee.
